Sleep Plugs Abbotsford

Posted on October 20, 2016

Are you scared of the snoring sound of your partner and find yourself tossing in bed? Do the flight attendants or several other environmental noises deprive you of a peaceful sleep? If so, then the ultimate solution to sound sleep is sleep plugs.

The sleep plugs are comfortable and keep away loud sounds. They are available in varied shapes, colors and styles. Different materials, with high sound absorption capacity are used to make these plugs. After you insert them, in the ears, you become unaware of the noise around you. You can doze off in a few minutes and sleep peacefully. With these plugs, loud sounds are subdued.  However, some sounds like that of an alarm clock or kids making a noise can still be heard.

The sleep plugs are made of soft material which resizes itself according to the shape of the ear. They reduce the volume of loud sounds. For example, snoring sound as loud as 85 db is lowered to 62 db.

Different types of sleep plugs:

Custom molded ear plugs: These are ideal for all kinds of sound filtering. The normal sleep plugs are uncomfortable and are incapable of obstructing loud noise. Thus custom molded sleep plugs are preferred by people.

Foam ear plugs: They are made up of disposable foam which can be cleaned easily. The foam is soft and is available in different shapes and sizes. You can use them in noisy surroundings and have an enjoyable time.

Reusable sleep plugs: If you need ear plugs for regular use, try the reusable sleep plugs. They are longer lasting than the custom molded ones. A little care will keep them in good condition. Try different ear plugs and select the one that suits your ears and thereby save money, rather than repeatedly buying disposable ear plugs.

Moldable wax ear plugs: These ear plugs are made of cotton and wax. Cotton gives softness to the ear plugs and keeps them intact. They are extremely comfortable and are suitable for all ear shapes. Wax ear plugs being soft can be used during study hours, at night and in flights. The ear plugs soften due to the body heat and do not hurt.

The moldable silicone swimming ear plugs are perfect for water activities such as swimming, bathing, and water sports. They are also ineffective when there are loud noises.

Important hacks to keep in mind  while using sleep plugs

  • Choose the ones with soft filtering material. Hard filters may exert pressure on the ears, causing pain.
  • Make it a habit to clean them regularly. Remove the accumulated ear wax and grime with soapy lather and warm water.
  • Their shelf life depends on the frequency of their use. Regular cleaning ensures a long life span.
  • Avoid silicone ear plugs. If you use them, you are inviting allergy problems.

 

If high volume or snoring sounds disturb you, buy a pair of sleep plugs and sleep in peace.
